[Zope] ZEO and LocalFS

[sean.upton@uniontrib.com]

In theory, at least on Linux, Intermezzo might be more appropriate for
syncing code in the Zope software home.  We plan on doing this with our next
Zope setup, with the idea that the software homes stay synced when we do a
cvs update of the code on our production servers, but they are still
independent and local.

If you want to share filesystem content between a set of ZEO clients that
are running on separate machines, you will need to set up something like NFS
or maybe Samba or another mountable network file system on each client.
Then you will need to export a directory from a "central" location that can
be mounted by each client.  We use NFS sometimes for this, and one tip is to
put the export on one client as something like /home/zope/share and mount it
on every other client as the same name.  Then you can address the files that
go in the share the same from any machine.  It also helps to actually put
the Zope software home in a mounted filesystem so all of your clients share
the same Zope code.  This is generally required for ZEO and it's a
reasonable way to accomplish it.
